A violent riot broke out at another Koran burning in the Swedish city of Malmö this Sunday, September 3.

The police described the situation as violent and several hundred people gathered at the scene. ‘There is still a special incident going on, but that also includes the investigation work’, commented Richard Lundqvist, a police press spokesperson. Around 100 people had gathered after permission was granted for a Koran burning on Värnhemstorget in Malmö on Sunday afternoon.

According to the police, the atmosphere at the scene turned violent at times, and a riot occurred shortly before 2 pm. The holy book was once again being burned by the repeat offender Salwan Momika.

A person attempted to get to Momika During the protest, a person tried to force his way towards 37-year-old Momika but he was intercepted by the police and taken away.

According to an SVT reporter who was on the spot, it appeared that the man forced his way through the barriers before being wrestled down by police officers.

Among other things, objects were thrown at Momika as he attempted to carry out his action. As a result, around 10 people were detained, and another two people were arrested on suspicion of causing a violent riot or blue light sabotage.

‘It is unclear to me what they intended to hit’, Richard Lundqvist, press spokesperson at police region South told aftonbladet.se. The public gathering lasted less than one hour, at the end of which, Momika was escorted away from the site.

‘There is still a special event going on, but that also includes the investigative work. So we are working on this, but there are no worries at the moment’, explained Lundqvist to svt.se.

Momika also burned the holy book in Stockholm

Salwan Momika is the same man who burned the Koran in the Stockholm area earlier this summer. He was granted permission for today’s action that was scheduled to take place between 1 pm and 3 pm, with police officers on the perimeter as a precaution. Momika had not burned a Koran in Malmö before today.

Parts of Värnhemstorget were cordoned off as a precaution although according to Malmö police spokesperson Filip Annas: ‘There is no information that there would be a threat against the burning of the Koran at the moment’.

Momika previously informed SVT that he would continue to burn the Koran until it is banned in Sweden. Koran burnings carried out this year in both Sweden and Denmark have led to strong reactions from Muslim countries. This led to the terror threat level being raised in Sweden.

You gotta wonder how long the Swedish police is going to tolerate this. Some of them have got to be hitting the breaking point and will start taking matter in their own hands.

Europe is being utterly destroyed. If the people don't start channeling their forefathers and start fighting back, the continent will cease to exist.

Obviously Sweden doesn’t have a first amendment like we have. Although things are bad here as well.

Becoming the rape capitol of the world didn’t clue in the Swedes. Hundreds of car burnings didn’t spark an epiphany. Urban areas in Sweden known as “no-go zones” are allegedly overrun by migrant violence where even the police are instructed not to patrol. Apparently this is not a problem.

By ignoring the consequences of their tolerance of illegal immigration and of failing to apply Swedish laws & norms to the “special people” Sweden is a powder keg. Freedom of speech will soon be a memory unless reason overwhelms virtue signaling.

Do their press refer to the Bible as a holy book?

Muslims bring so much culture to any society.

And as opposed to Catholics, muzzies are protected.

That’s not migrant violence. It’s migrant vibrancy.

We have a 1st amendment? Sure wouldn’t have known that after Jan 6th.

It sounds like a permit was required for public safety, and that was granted. Muslims in Europe need to understand that they don't live in a Muslim theocracy. There are enough of them in the world, but people generally prefer to live in the West. However, book burning may be banned eventually for contributing to global warming.

There are NO SWEDES taking part in this, but Arabs attack Swedish embassies abroad just the same.

Salwan Momika is Iraqi.

Iran claims he's a Mossad agent: Intelligence: Stockholm Koran burner works for Mossad.

And according to Indian sources: Who is Salwan Momika, the Quran burner sparking International tensions between Sweden and Muslim nations.

What's going on here? Is this a Muslim burning Korans in order to create riotous situations until Sweden bans Koran burning? He's burning Korans to force a ban on Koran burning?

This seems bizarre.

Cry me a river. Their religion is satanic. “Allah” is the anti-Christ.
